Management of intrauterine infections involves both prenatal and postnatal interventions. Prenatal management may include:
1. Maternal treatment: Antiviral, antibiotic, or antiparasitic medications based on the pathogen. 2. Monitoring: Regular ultrasounds and non-stress tests to monitor fetal well-being.
Postnatal management focuses on:
1. Immediate care: Intensive care for severely affected neonates. 2. Antiviral/antibacterial therapy: Administering appropriate medications to the newborn. 3. Supportive care: Managing symptoms and complications such as jaundice and respiratory distress.
